Abstract
A vehicle speed control apparatus for automatically maintaining the vehicle speed of an automobile at a desired speed without the operation of the accelerator pedal, which apparatus includes an increase switch and a speed-increase means for continuously increasing the opening degree of the throttle valve when the increase switch is operated. When the increase switch is operated, the desired speed changes in response to the increasing actual speed of the automobile. The desired speed is finally determined to be the value of the actual vehicle speed just before the increase switch returns to the non-operating condition.
